Pearl Street’s transformation will be celebrated and revealed to the public and DesignPhiladelphia will kick off its 2015 Festival with Pearl Street Passage. For several days in October, the 1100 block will be transformed with about 10 installations created by multidisciplinary teams of artists, designers, makers, builders, neighborhood stakeholders and others. The handsome constructions will be experiential, educational and fun. Most of all, the Passage will announce Pearl Street as a place that promotes creativity and social vibrancy.

Each applicant was evaluated based on experience, past work, and creative mission; and then assembled them into 10 dynamic, multidisciplinary teams by our curatorial committee.
